Xtar VC4 Four Bay Battery Charger

Saturday, 14 October 2017 | K.

This is my latest gadget in a long history of battery chargers. A problem with most chargers is the lack of any/useful information in regard to the state of charge and one's merely given an approximate time for full charge based upon the size/ type of the battery, not its capacity. Not any longer, and the Xtar VC4 charger is fully up to speed with battery sizes and types, and can be used for both NiMH and Li-ion batteries. A large LCD screen, having white text and dials with pointers on a blue background, indicates the state of charge at any time and indicates "Full" when charging is complete. It's very easy to use in that you place the batteries in spring-loaded charging slots, plug it into a 220 volt AC to 5 volt DC via the included USB lead and switch on at the mains. That's all there is to it and it lets you know when its finished.

Good charger

This is a good charger. Works fine with a mix of NiMh and 18650s. It needs a true 2.1A usb output to maintain fast charging for multiple batteries otherwise the charge rate will step down gradually. The display is excellent and easy to view and the ability to completely turn off the display is brilliant for overnight charging. For NiMh the unit will first provide a trickle charge for around 10 minutes before stepping up. This works with a power bank with a 2.1A output but will struggle on laptop/desktop USB ports due to the current limitations. Its worth reading the user guide as channels 1 and 4 provide fast 1A charging whereas 2 and 3 will step down to 500 mA.

The unit warms up very slightly when 4 batteries are being charged but batteries remain cool until nearing the end of the charge cycle when they may warm up very slightly unlike a lot of cheaper chargers.

As always order processing and delivery were outstanding.

Great charger - even better service

Sunday, 12 June 2016 | Bob

I did make enquiries of several other companies before deciding on Torch Direct. I chose them because they were prompt, thoughtful and seemed to know what they were talking about rather then just 'box shifting'. Whilst I'm always happy to pay a bit more for better service I did find their pricing VERY competitative.I have another charger that was sold to me as "an excellent home charger" - this is the Anasamann Super 8 - but it just simply fails on so many different batteries - I had a box full of batteries that charged once and never again. The XTAR unit looked really compact and I had my suspicions but every single battery is now fully charged.I've not 'played' with the unit very much yet and I believe that fast charging is possible but currently I'd say that it was significantly slower overall (then the Suoer 8) - maybe 30% slower -but it recharged all my batteries so I'm very pleased.Final call out to Torch Direct - great service, thank you.
